Chapter 1211
Who did he think he was?
If Jacob didn’t want to work here, Belinda’s uncle could find him a job at the Blanchet Corporation.
Chase seemed to notice Belinda’s distress, and his smile grew deeper. “Belinda, can you come to my office?”
Belinda was slightly taken aback.
Chase actually asked her to go to his office?
She didn’t even want to look at Chase. She stood with her back to him, never giving him a straight look.

Belinda didn’t think twice and declined his request for her to go to his office, answering him with her back turned. “Mr. Larios, I’m no longer an employee of Crescent Society, so it’s not really appropriate for me to go to your office.”
Chase’s tone was serious but still casual. “Until you officially leave, you’re still an employee here. Please cooperate.”
Belinda replied with dissatisfaction. “Sorry, I can’t cooperate. I’ve decided to quit.”
She didn’t look back at him. Chase walked around to her front, looked down at her eyes, and gently said, “Come to my office; let’s talk about your resignation. It’ll make it easier when you’re looking for a job in the future.”
Jacob was Belinda’s boyfriend. He certainly didn’t want to see another man treating his girlfriend this way, but he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, that man was his boss.
Belinda was also a bit annoyed at Chase’s misleading attitude, but what could she do? She didn’t want to hear any more of his annoying words. Ignoring Chase, she said to her boyfriend, Jacob. “I’m going to handle my resignation first, then we can go grab a bite.”
Jacob looked at his girlfriend with a bit of worry. He instinctively didn’t want her to go to Mr. Larios’ office, but he couldn’t control the situation, so he just
nodded.
Then Belinda followed Chase to his office.
“Mr. Larios, what’s up? If there’s something, spit it out. My boyfriend is waiting for me.”
Chase closed the office door, shrugged off his coat and threw it on the sofa, loosened his tie, and sat at his desk. “So, having a boyfriend now makes talking to me a chore?”
Belinda sarcastically laughed. “I’m not like you. You can be flirty with all the girls, but I’m not. When I have a boyfriend, I pay attention to boundaries. I have a responsibility to my boyfriend.”
Chase laughed.
His laugh offended Belinda. She frowned and asked, “What’s so funny?”
After Chase finished laughing, he looked at her with his arm propped up. “So, are you really planning on marrying that little employee, Jacob?” Belinda frowned even more, and her tone became very serious. “Of course! Every time I date, it’s for marriage. I don’t play games with my feelings! And what’s wrong with a little employee? Don’t underestimate him!
Chase squinted slightly. “So you were chasing me because you wanted to marry me?”
This question stunned Belinda, her cheeks turning red with embarrassment. “As much as I hate to admit it now, yes! I was chasing you, hoping to marry you! But now, I’ve woken up. I know that you don’t value me. You don’t even mention marriage. You wouldn’t choose a boring, non-fun-loving woman like me! So don’t worry, I won’t bother you anymore!”

Chase was looking at her, but she didn’t look back at him when she was speaking, clearly avoiding eye contact.
That was a sign that showed that she cared him.
If she didn’t care about Chase, she wouldn’t deliberately avoid eye contact.
Chase squinted. “So what if I tell you now that I’m willing to have a serious relationship with you?”
Belinda’s heart skipped a beat after she heard Chase say this.
What…what did he just say?
